Water colour demonstration by Ian McManus
Ian McManus joined us for our group's latest demonstration taking as his topic a photograph of a Somerset street scene taken on a gloomy day. Although a little uninspiring it was brought to life by Ian's use of vibrant watercolours and interesting tonal effects. We thank Ian for an exceptionally informative demo and look forward to seeing him again in some future date.

Watercolour demonstration by Susan Boddy
Susan Boddy joined Writtle Art Group on the Monday 24th February and gave us a very informative and enjoyable demonstration.
Susan, using just three colours - French Ultra Marine, Light Red, and Burnt Siena - showed the power of a limited pallet and the need to consider perspective in our work.
We thank Susan and look forward to another session with you in the future.
